Question

A shop has 15% sale. Originally a computer cost £275. How much does the computer cost in the sale?

Answer 1

15%×£275=£41.25
£275-£41.25=£233.75

Answer 2

= 233.75

Explanation:

To find the discount, we multiply the original price by the percent off

discount = 275* .15

= 41.25

To get the sale price, take the original price and subtract the discount

sale price = 275-41.25

= 233.75
